Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Such a great camping experience! Definitely up there for people who like camping but for those who still like to enjoy their luxuries (showers, proper toilets) etc. The facilities are clean and bits provided for you. Our pitch was spacious, and the staff were really friendly- nothing was too much trouble! You can also use a number of fire pits as well, all included in the price. The campsite is relatively small but we liked that. We felt comfortable leaving the kids on occasion to go wash up/ toilet etc. An added bonus for us was the table tennis- it kept the kids (and us) occupied for hours! Lots to do in the local area and not far from supermarket/ local shops. We had a great experience. We’ll definitely be back!
Disliked: The pool is nice but we didn’t use it much due to other kids sneezing and coughing so often.
